COVID19 Support and Advice

Support for local People in the COVID-19 crisis

If you are at home and feel that you have contracted COVID-19 please check the NHS website for current advice as to what to do next. For all other medical emergencies call 999.

FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE RECEIVED A LETTER FROM THE NHS BECAUSE YOU ARE VERY HIGH RISK or ‘SHIELDED’ – You will have received separate information and advice (including a phone number to call) in the letter from the NHS. Please refer to that letter in the first instance.

If you are isolating, it is OK to ask for help

South Stoke Parish Council

South Stoke Parish council has facilitated the community to set up a group of volunteers to support our community. A postcard has been delivered to every home in the parish giving each home two contact numbers, a community volunteer contact number and the phone number of the Clerk. Either can be used to arrange help for isolating residents of our village.

SSPC is also:

Collating the data of volunteers and local residents who need help in a database* to inform the authorities and or local volunteers to ensure help reaches those who need it as fast as possible

Ensuring that anyone who volunteers for tasks that may require them to attend to something for the vulnerable or to enter someone’s house will be DBS checked and safeguarding trained before their services as a volunteer are used.

Issue ID cards to all such volunteers.

Up to date information will be available on the Parish website (www.SouthStoke.org.uk). We will also communicate through Genie regularly so please sign up, at least during this crisis, at: www.genienews.org
